The previously announced television anime special, Persona 5 the Animation -The Day Breakers-, will air in September, before the game’s launch.
A live-stream event by Atlus on Thursday revealed the fourth promotional video and the September 15 release for the Persona 5 role-playing game on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3.
“Persona 20th Fes,” a “immersive Persona cultural festival” in the style of high school festivals, will run at the Arts Chiyoda 3331 complex in Tokyo’s Akihabara district in December to celebrate the franchise’s 20th anniversary.
It will recount the prologue story of the young thief organization at the center of the game.
